Dating back to their primordial origins in the infamous Homebrew Computer Club of mid-late 70's Silicon Valley, the
Digital
Valentine's Day Graphics Gatherings have established one of the longest records in inventive culture -- as of 2014, we're at 34 years &
still going
strong.

Over the years, the Gathering has morphed without losing its soul, and has broadened to encompass Creativity in every
medium, in every context.

Yep, pre-historic by the standards of the blogosphere, or even by web standards.... But there are some fossils to be found by persistent digital archeologists....

Maui in 1994

2003's Gathering was near Washington DC. Before that, the Gathering had never before been east of California in the US -- but had been in California, Hawaii, and several overseas countries: Thailand, Israel, Singapore, Australia.
